While several have observed the new parts at BrickFair and the minute we posted them for sale in our online store we have been asked by the admins to post an official announcement authored by one our staff members to insure against possible confusion. Lots more to come!

Bards, bring honour to our fallen heroes by plucking a praiseworthy poem. Minstrels can choose from the Violin (fiddle), Drumsticks or a variety of Guitars. Components feature a 1.5mm half-round neck and rear connection point for easy handling. Additional colors available soon.

BrickCon 2010 is in full swing and we couldn't think of a better time to introduce some brand-spanking new items.

On the heels of our infamous Centaur & other recently-released gear, BrickForge is proud to present ten new out-of-sight accessories.

Launch an offensive with the sleek-but-deadly Battle Rifle and heavy assault Coilgun. These two cosmic caliber weapons will drive back any alien attackers or strike fear among interplanetary intruders. If you forgot to wear Ammo Pouches and run out of boom-power, just slip on a set of our Brass Knuckles for some up close and personal pounding.

For more modern appeal equip your grunts with the simple-but-sure Grease Gun. Our Backpack conveniently stows the new trench Shovel and Canteen while the Soldier Helmet provides a bit of shelter from shell-shock.

The Cutlass is great for swashbuckling while the Hatchet can be used for chopping wood or fending off local savages. Our Bayonet clips onto the BrickForge Musket or any other accessory designed with a standard 3.1mm section; such as the Battle Rifle or Coilgun, making for a truly painful experience.

Castle fans will of course be most interested in the Hatchet, Cutlass, Bayonet, Shovel, Canteen and Brass Knuckles (okay, so most of those are more likely to show up in the DnD equipment manual than an accurate MOC of the middle ages... use your imagination)!

Set your fig apart with some style! Add some Maverick Hair to your rock star or lonely adventurer. The Ponytail makes any bounty hunter look a bit more intimidating, and the Mohawk lends a bit more accuracy to your street punks or tactical heroes.

Also available is the new BrickForge Lamppost which features a hollow twin-mast junction and hollow stud connection points for excessive customization. The Lamppost is designed to come apart and snap back together allowing enthusiasts to use a LifeLites.com e-Lite micro-lighting kit to bright their streetlamp to life.

Top off your minifigs with the new Double Plume. Modeled after the classic-style the adornment displays two feathers, a 3mm grip area and a traditional peg/socket connection that works with most standard BrickForge and official headgear.

If that's not enough for you we have released several existing items in a bunch of new colors - including the brand new GOLD, Trans Light Blue and Trans Purple. Since there is simply too much to comprehend we made a list over at our forum. What are you waiting for? Head on over to our store to check things out!

After taking pics of our new items I really wanted to put together a group of adventurers using some of the new stuff. I really like how this picture came out.Featuring: Frost Mage, Shadow Rogue, Centaur Paladin, Orc Berserker
